Creamy-white and drooping in clusters, they will attract large numbers of bees and butterflies! In autumn, clusters of nutlets form.

Elaeagnus Angustifolia Oleaster for Sale Online UK & Ireland

Elaeagnus Angustifolia Oleaster for Sale Online UK & Ireland

Elaeagnus Angustifolia, also known as Oleaster or Russian olive, is an incredibly tough tree which will survive almost any type of growing conditions, and will be especially successful in the most challenging climates in the UK!  Whether grown as a specimen plant in a sheltered city garden or as windbreak by the sea, Elaeagnus Angustifolia will come through with flying colours!Native to Russia and Iran, Elaeagnus Angustifolia has been grown in the UK since the 1500s. The thorny stems bear silver, fragrant leaves, and produce small white flowers with a honey scent in June, which are a valuable pollen source for bees. Silver-orange berries later appear in the autumn which, while edible, are mostly of value for attracting birds. A unique quality of the Oleaster is that its roots set nitrogen, feeding not just itself, but also other plants around them, making them a valuable companion planting.  Elaeagnus Angustifolia is hardy throughout the UK and northern Europe, growing quickly to a mature height of 3 metres and spread of 2 metres within 10 years. Oleaster will tolerate considerable pruning, and can even be cut right back to the ground. If planting Elaeagnus Angustifolia as a hedge, space plants 35-75 cm apart. You can use a high potassium fertilizer in August to help new growth mature before winter. Elaeagnus Angustifolia will tolerate almost any conditions, and in fact thrives in some of the toughest. It is an excellent choice for coastal plantings, as it can take cold, exposed positions and is tolerant to salt, as well as doing quite well in dry, sandy soil, although it will also grow in heavy clay soil, as well as loam. It grows best in full sun.  Oleaster can be used as a specimen plant in a small garden, where its silvery leaves can be used to great effect when combined with climbing plants such as roses or clematis, and where the scent of the foliage and flowers can be appreciated close up. It will thrive in a hot, dry spot such as a patch of gravel where little else will grow. On a larger property, Elaeagnus Angustifolia makes an effective security hedge, as its thorns will deter intruders, either animal or human, and can be employed as a windbreak to provide shelter for other, more delicate plants.  Elaeagnus Angustifolia is a great choice for gardens across the UK because of its resilience in difficult conditions, as well as its beautiful foliage and flowers. It has a place in gardens large and small!

Olive Tree Shrubs (Olea Europaea Shrubs)  Latin Name Olea Europaea, these European native olive tree shrubs are evergreen with a nice bushy shape. Despite their Mediterranean allure, these are tough plants that are fully hardy for UK growing conditions and can be used for hedging or ornamental use. Olive Trees will flower in summer and may sometimes go on to produce fruit in the autumn in warmer parts of the country and in less exposed areas.  These olive tree shrubs are the perfect shape and size for creating an evergreen olive hedge. Olives are very clipable and they are easy to maintain growing circa 20 cm per year. Every Mediterranean-style garden should ideally contain olive trees. In addition to hedging, these Olive Tree Shrubs with their bushy shapes could be clipped into topiary style cones. These versatile Olive Tree shrubs look very good when planted in containers, especially in pairs on balconies and terraces. In fact, olive trees are renowned for doing well in containers. But don’t forget to water them however in dry periods.  As with all olives, they prefer a sunny sheltered spot, so it’s best to choose a south or west facing aspect when planting.  We also have olive trees as small and medium standards and mature tall full standard olive trees and perhaps more unusually what we call Bonsai Olives, mature gnarled olive trees

It lends an exotic air of the tropics to UK gardens, but this herbaceous perennial has a degree of hardiness that makes it possible to survive the winter in milder parts of the UK. It has received the RHS Award of Garden Merit. Originally growing in Sichuan province of China before being introduced to the Ryukyu Islands south of Japan, Musa basjoo is noted for its rapid growth and large, spectacular leaves and unusual flowers. Its thick, paddle-shaped leaves, up to 60 cm across and more than 2 metres long, fan out from the stem in a fountain shape.  In summer it produces spikes of cream-coloured flowers, which hang downwards.  Throughout the summer it will grow in height, with new leaves unfurling almost every week. Given the right conditions and protection, the hardy Japanese banana plant can grow to 4 metres in height with a spread of 2.5 metres in 5 to 10 years. A container-grown Musa basjoo will be somewhat smaller because of the restrictions on the root system.Musa basjoo will survive outside in very mild parts of the UK without winter cover, but wherever there are freezing temperatures, it needs protection after the first autumn frost.  Build a cage out of chicken wire, or make a tube out of horticultural fleece, and stuff it with straw or leaves to insulate the plant from freezing temperatures. Mulch the ground heavily to protect the roots. Musa basjoo will grow back from the roots even if the stem is killed off in the winter, as it is root-hardy to -15C. Growing from the roots, the hardy Japanese banana plant can reach a height of 2 metres in one summer Musa basjoo needs to be carefully sited in your garden. Find a sheltered spot with a south-facing aspect, in full sun or dappled shade.  Plant in well-drained but moist sand, chalk or loam soil with a nitrogen-rich fertilize and plenty of humus. It prefers a slightly acidic ph. If it settles in happily, you will be able to remove suckers to plant elsewhere in the spring, or divide the clumps every five years. Cut the flowering spikes off after they finish blooming, as the Musa basjoo will die after setting fruit, and you will want to keep it as an ornamental plant for many years!Plant your hardy Japanese banana plant as a specimen plant in the middle of a lawn, where its dramatic, exotic appearance will create a stunning focal point. It is also an excellent candidate for container growing on a patio or in a courtyard, and can then be easily brought in to a greenhouse or conservatory for overwintering.  Musa basjoo will bring the jungle to your garden with its dramatic leaves, and is well worth the trouble that it will take to protect through a UK winter.

Phormium Tenax Purpurea Purple Phomium. Grass Specialists UK

Phormium Tenax Purpurea or Purple Phormium is a beautifully coloured Phormium grass bearing narrow, bronze-purple leaves and deep red flowers in summer. Phormium Grasses originate from New Zealand and are clump-forming upright shrubs. They prefer to be planted in full sun but will tolerate partial shade. The flower spikes are produced during July to August and are a deep burgundy red colour.Phormium Tenax Purpurea are fabulous architectural shrubs that are very easy to grow and will tolerate coastal conditions. They have, not surprisingly become very popular in coastal areas where the choice for planting can be quite limited. These beauties will perform really well and have been awarded the Award of Garden Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society, a sure sign that it will grow well in most gardens.Phormium Tenax Purpurea is a robust evergreen perennial of the Hemerocallidaceae Family. Also known as Phorium tenax Purpureum in the UK, it is best known for its large clumps of very leathery leaves, taking the form of a strap like shape and measuring up to 2 metres in length.  Their panicles emerge to some 3 metres and express tube shaped, smallish flowers of deep red during the summer.Hardy to Zone H5 in the UK and Ireland, Phormium Tenax Purpurea prefers full sun to partial shade exposures, with corresponding aspects in priority, from North to East to South to West facing. They will persist in sheltered or exposed positions, but protection in cold climate areas is a good idea. In terms of soils preference, aim for a loamy sand that is well-drained, but also can hold its moisture. Not terribly choosy regarding pH, grow your Purple Phormium in slightly acidic, neutral, or slightly alkaline pH levels and she’ll be quite happy.Also known as New Zealand flax Purpureum Group from its origins, this evergreen will achieve ultimate height between 2.5 and 4.0 metres, with a spread of 1.5-2.5 metres in the course of its 10-20 years to reach full maturity.Relatively maintenance free, you can conveniently remove any dead or damaged leaves in the spring to help your Phormium Tenax Purpurea thrive, but little more is needed as they are typically disease free.  This is an outstanding choice as a low maintenance border along your flower beds, or as an architectural offering in your city and courtyard gardens. They are especially suited to coastal gravel gardens.We have a good selection of Phormiums or New Zealand Flax at our London plant centre, all of which are available to buy online with delivery UK wide and to Ireland.
